I'm with you.

I'm not naive enough to proclaim conspiracy towards one team over another. But, I will be naive enough to proclaim a blind eye when points are involved.

The Roethlisberger "fumble" last week vs Giants, and now this TD.

When it's bang-bang plays and things are missed, I try to put myself in the officials shoes. But when they have the benefit of replay, and still can't see things that are that blatant, I'm not sure what else to make of it except POINTS IS GOOD!

The Bryant TD? It moved around but I never saw it actually touch the ground. Has to be conclusive to be overturned and I didn't see an angle that showed the ball touch the ground.

Then you need to get your eyes checked. It rolled on the ground let alone touching it.

Evidently the refs disagree with you. And since Miami is my team, I don't play fantasy football and don't have money riding on the game, I think my view was pretty unbiased.

That punt returns makes up for the holding call on the INT. Now the Eagles are going to have to hope that Foles doesn't try to force anything.

Dallas gets a TD anyway on a punt return.

Doesn't seem like that call matters one way or the other since Philadelphia is imploding.

So is Mike Pereira who said it clearly wasn't a catch.

I take it that Dallas is pissed.
Punt return for TD, and INT returned for a TD.

Perhaps you and him need to be the ones making an appointment with an optometrist?

The Rams have converted 2 different fake punts. I think they may have found their QB of the future.

May have wished they didn't call that timeout with 1:13 left.

Wow, missed XP by the Eagles. Just makes it that much more difficult if they get the onside kick.

I absolutely cannot stand this Eagles team. My least-favorite team since I started watching sports. That includes the late-90s versions of both the Eagles and Phillies. No heart. None. Bunch of damn tin men in green helmets plodding around the field.

Replacement refs let 1:15 run off during a measurement in the niners game?

Damn, that was a stupid play.

Niners so close to stealing this game with their backup QB.

Has he been second guessing himself that bad since he came in? The QB that is. He had an open receiver for a short gain but it looked like he second guessed himself out of throwing on first down.

At first yes. He looked a bit better late in the 3rd and 4th quarter.
